Pedersen targets fourth place

By Kent Hedlundh

Morten Gamst Pedersen believes that Blackburn have a great chance of securing the final UEFA Champions League spot.

Rovers' 1-1 draw with Wigan left Mark Hughes' side level on points with Arsenal and just two behind Tottenham in fourth, and Pedersen thinks they are well placed to sneak through and pip the London rivals.

Pedersen reckons that Blackburn could benefit from Arsenal's involvement in the Champions League, while Spurs appear to be losing momentum and have a difficult run-in.
